Ancient Viral Genomes in Glaciers Reveal Pathogens’ Climate Adaptation Over 41,000 Years 

Researchers from The Ohio State University have uncovered how ancient viruses preserved in glacier ice have adapted to Earth’s shifting climate over the past 41,000 years. By analysing viral genomes from the Guliya Glacier on the Tibetan Plateau, the study reveals significant variations in viral communities between cold and warm climatic periods.
